Description

補償基線游離的裝置及方法Device and method for compensating baseline free

本發明係有關於一種資料傳輸系統,其係尤指補償基頻收發系統之基線游離的裝置及方法。The present invention relates to a data transmission system, and more particularly to an apparatus and method for compensating for baseline freeness of a baseband transceiver system.

由於在近二十年來,電腦運算能力增加與網際網路廣泛的普及化,而導致對於大量且快速資料的處理、儲存以及傳輸之需求不斷的提高。為了滿足使用者間資料傳輸速度提高的需求,從西元1990年至今,乙太網路之傳輸速度已從10Mbps(megabits per second)發展至10Gbps(gigabits per second)。IEEE 802.3特別小組基於不同應用環境與目標而建立,以訂定各種乙太網路規範,用於促進多數區域發展乙太網路。In the past two decades, the increase in computer computing power and the widespread popularity of the Internet have led to an increasing demand for processing, storage, and transmission of large amounts of data. In order to meet the increasing demand for data transmission between users, the transmission speed of Ethernet has evolved from 10 Mbps (megabits per second) to 10 Gbps (gigabits per second) since 1990. The IEEE 802.3 Task Force was established based on different application environments and goals to define various Ethernet specifications for facilitating the development of Ethernet in most regions.

區域網路(LANs)之100Mbps快速乙太網路傳輸技術為現今最為廣泛的應用技術,讓電腦之間和電子裝置之間可達到高速度資料交換之目的。在下一代電腦系統,1000Mbps乙太網路傳輸裝置將取代100Mbps乙太網路傳輸裝置,而成為標準設備,然而在建構未來資訊高速傳輸網路,現今中樞網路之總頻寬將遭遇到瓶頸。基於上述,為了在資料傳輸上支援更高頻寬的需求,IEEE802.3an工作小組制定一種新式的10Gbps收發系統,其運用類型6或7銅傳輸線使得傳輸連結可支援至100公尺,詳細規格介紹請參閱IEEE初定規格P802.3an/D3.0。10Gbps乙太網路傳輸裝置已在2006年中經過檢驗,且將被實現在資料中心,以在初始階段提供中樞網路充足的頻寬。The 100Mbps Fast Ethernet transmission technology of local area networks (LANs) is the most widely used application technology today, enabling high-speed data exchange between computers and electronic devices. In the next-generation computer system, the 1000Mbps Ethernet transmission device will replace the 100Mbps Ethernet transmission device and become a standard device. However, in the construction of the future information high-speed transmission network, the total bandwidth of the current backbone network will encounter bottlenecks. . Based on the above, in order to support higher bandwidth requirements in data transmission, the IEEE802.3an working group has developed a new 10Gbps transceiver system that uses a type 6 or 7 copper transmission line to support transmission links up to 100 meters. For detailed specifications, please refer to The IEEE initial specification P802.3an/D3.0. The 10Gbps Ethernet transmission device has been tested in 2006 and will be implemented in the data center to provide sufficient bandwidth for the backbone network in the initial phase.

請參閱第一圖,其為10G乙太網路收發系統之簡要方塊圖。10G系統支援4個以上的連接器結構、4對以上的銅絞線傳輸,其每對傳輸線之傳輸率在每秒800M符號(mega symbols/second),每一符號表示3.125位元。此外,10G系統之每一對傳送線皆支援全雙工運作。因此,如圖所示,一混合器(Hybrid)10耦接於收發系統以及每一對銅傳輸線11。10G收發系統包含有兩部分,第一部分為發送器,其用於編碼與調變來自主機的資料,且發送經調變後的訊號至一遠端;另一部分為接收器,其用於解調變與解碼所接收的訊號,且發送經回復後的資料至主機。Please refer to the first figure, which is a brief block diagram of the 10G Ethernet transceiver system. The 10G system supports more than 4 connector structures and 4 pairs of copper stranded transmissions. The transmission rate of each pair of transmission lines is 800M symbols per second (mega symbols/second), and each symbol represents 3.125 bits. In addition, each pair of transmission lines in the 10G system supports full-duplex operation. Therefore, as shown, a hybrid (Hybrid) 10 is coupled to the transceiver system and each pair of copper transmission lines 11. The 10G transceiver system includes two parts, and the first part is a transmitter for encoding and modulation from the host. The data is sent to the remote end; the other part is a receiver for demodulating and decoding the received signal, and sending the replied data to the host.

承接上述,發送路徑中更包含一媒體存取控制(Media Access Control,MAC)單元12,用於管理來自主機之處理需求以及管理連結,且經由一媒體獨立介面(Medium Independent Interface,XGMII)13傳送資料區塊至收發系統之實體層。然後,實體層之一實體編碼次層(Physical Coding Sublayer,PCs)14攪亂媒體存取控制單元12所傳送的資料位元,並且利用低密度奇偶檢測(low-density parity-check,LDPC)編碼器編碼經攪亂後的資料位元。最後,映射經編碼後資料流中的每7位元資料為16位準脈波振幅調變(16-level pulse amplitude modulation,16-PAM)符號,此16位準脈波振幅調變技術用於轉換資料位元至預定振幅,以提高有頻寬限制通道之傳輸效率。In the above, the transmission path further includes a Media Access Control (MAC) unit 12 for managing processing requirements and management connections from the host, and transmitting through a Medium Independent Interface (XGMII) 13 The data block is to the physical layer of the transceiver system. Then, one of the physical layer Physical Coding Sublayers (PCs) 14 scrambles the data bits transmitted by the media access control unit 12, and utilizes a low-density parity-check (LDPC) encoder. Encode the scrambled data bits. Finally, each 7-bit data in the encoded data stream is mapped to a 16-bit pulse-frequency amplitude modulation (16-PAM) symbol, and the 16-bit quasi-pulse amplitude modulation technique is used. The data bit is converted to a predetermined amplitude to improve the transmission efficiency of the bandwidth limited channel.

如圖所示,此16位準脈波振幅調變符號進一步受一湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器(Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder,THP)16處理,其在傳送訊號前預先等化訊號,以補償訊號在頻率選擇通道中的訊號衰減與失真。此外,預先等化後的數位符號經由一數位類比轉換器(digital-to-analog converter,DAC)18轉換,而轉換為一連續時序類比波形,並且經由一類比濾波器20收歛高頻,以因應限制高頻散發。最後,一線驅動器22驅動類比波形經混合器10與銅傳輸線11傳送至對應之接收器。As shown, the 16-bit quasi-pulse amplitude modulation symbol is further processed by a Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder (THP) 16, which pre-equalizes the signal before transmitting the signal to compensate The signal is attenuated and distorted in the frequency selection channel. In addition, the pre-equalized digital symbols are converted into a continuous time series analog waveform by a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) 18, and the high frequency is converged via an analog filter 20 to respond. Limit high frequency emissions. Finally, the line driver 22 drives the analog waveform to be transmitted through the mixer 10 and the copper transmission line 11 to the corresponding receiver.

接著對接收路徑進行說明,於接受路徑上混合器10接收銅傳輸線11傳送至10G接收器的訊號,然後一前端類比濾波器24移除訊號位於所注重頻帶外之高頻訊號成分,以防止後續之一類比數位轉換器(analog-to-digital converter,ADC)28所取樣的取樣資料發生失真情形。在類比數位轉換器28取樣訊號之前,一可程式化增益放大器(Programmable Gain Amplitude,PGA)26,用以調整訊號輸入振福至類比數位轉換器28可接受之範圍,如此類比數位轉換器28即可取樣與量化所接收之類比波形,並且輸出取樣後之數位取樣資料至一前饋(feed forward)等化器29,類比數位轉換器28於傳輸過程中並不會加入雜訊。Next, the receiving path is described. On the receiving path, the mixer 10 receives the signal transmitted by the copper transmission line 11 to the 10G receiver, and then a front-end analog filter 24 removes the high-frequency signal component whose signal is outside the band of interest to prevent subsequent A sampled data sampled by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) 28 is distorted. Before the analog-to-digital converter 28 samples the signal, a Programmable Gain Amplitude (PGA) 26 is used to adjust the range of the signal input to the analog digital converter 28, such that the analog converter 28 is The analog waveform received can be sampled and quantized, and the sampled digital sample data is output to a feed forward equalizer 29, which does not add noise during transmission.

接續,前饋等化器29處理數位取樣資料以消除先前傳輸訊號的過程中加入於訊號的雜訊,並且消除剩餘的符號干擾(inter symbol interference,ISI),以增加在等化器29輸出端的訊號雜訊比(signal-to-noise ratio,SNR)。於等化後,經等化之符號進一步以資料位元序列方式傳送至實體編碼次層14之接收單元(圖未示),進而運用低密度奇偶檢測解碼器解碼並且進行解擾亂,以回復資料至原本資料區塊。最後,媒體存取控制單元12確認過實體編碼次層14所傳送的資料區塊後,將會傳送至主機。In succession, the feedforward equalizer 29 processes the digital sample data to eliminate noise added to the signal during the previous transmission of the signal, and eliminates residual symbol interference (ISI) to increase the output at the output of the equalizer 29. Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). After equalization, the equalized symbols are further transmitted to the receiving unit (not shown) of the entity encoding sublayer 14 in the form of a data bit sequence, and then decoded and descrambled by the low density parity detecting decoder to reply data. To the original data block. Finally, after the media access control unit 12 confirms the data block transmitted by the entity code sublayer 14, it will transmit to the host.

如第一圖所示,銅傳輸線11以及乙太網路接收器會藉由混合器10耦接在一起,以支援全雙工運作。所以,當發送器傳送訊號至對應的接收器時,在接收器偵測訊號前,訊號將會經過銅傳輸線11與兩個混合器10。運用在10G乙太網路之混合器10,一般大都為變壓器,其頻率響應為高頻通過,所以傳輸能量低於變壓器之濾除頻率時將會發生損失的情形。基於上述變壓器高頻通過的特性,此種不希望於通道傳輸波形而發生的效應,一般稱為基線游離(Baseline Wander,BLW),其會造成用於基頻傳輸系統之直流碼產生不平衡之情形。當基線游離現象發生時,傳輸信號之基線將基於先前與當前傳輸符號的極性而被向上偏移或者向下偏移。若具有連續正極性或者負極性的符號於超過一短時間間隔被傳送,變壓器將會阻隔傳送訊號中所攜帶的低頻能量,如此經過阻隔後的訊號波形將會在接收器受到修剪,並且會導致位元錯誤,甚至會縮短長度。基於上述因素,接收器必須補償基線游離現象。As shown in the first figure, the copper transmission line 11 and the Ethernet receiver are coupled together by the mixer 10 to support full-duplex operation. Therefore, when the transmitter transmits a signal to the corresponding receiver, the signal will pass through the copper transmission line 11 and the two mixers 10 before the receiver detects the signal. The mixer 10 used in the 10G Ethernet network is generally a transformer, and its frequency response is high frequency passage, so the loss will occur when the transmission energy is lower than the filter frequency of the transformer. Based on the characteristics of the above-mentioned high-frequency transmission of the transformer, such an effect that is not desired to be transmitted by the channel is generally referred to as Baseline Wander (BLW), which causes an imbalance in the DC code used in the baseband transmission system. situation. When a baseline free phenomenon occurs, the baseline of the transmitted signal will be shifted upward or downward based on the polarity of the previous and current transmitted symbols. If a symbol with continuous positive or negative polarity is transmitted over a short time interval, the transformer will block the low frequency energy carried in the transmitted signal, so that the signal waveform after the blocking will be trimmed at the receiver and will result in The bit is wrong and even shortens the length. Based on the above factors, the receiver must compensate for the baseline free phenomenon.

基於上述因素,現今已提出多種消除基頻通訊系統的基線遊離現象的技術,如以下所列出的技術:[1]Mel Buzes於1999年3月29日申請且已核准的美國專利第6140857號的“Method an apparatus for reducing baseline wander”。Based on the above factors, various techniques for eliminating the baseline free phenomenon of the baseband communication system have been proposed, such as the following: [1] US Patent No. 6,140,857, filed on March 29, 1999 by the name of the same.

上述技術可分類為三個群組,第一個群組為上述[1],如第二圖所示,其是在類比域估計與補償基線游離,其包含有一基線游離補償電路30、一類比數位轉換器32、一前饋濾波器(feedforward filter,FFF)34、一加法器35、一切劃器(slicer)36以及一回授濾波器(feedback filter,FBF)38。此種在類比域消除基線游離之方式,雖然可放寬類比數位轉換器32的設計需求,但是此種方式與上述在數位域補償之方式[3]-[6]相較之下,其功率相耗高,且電路佔用晶片面積大。為了增進第一種方式,C.L.Ling以及G.C.Chou於上述[2]提出另一種補償方式,其是在數位域估計基線游離並在類比域消除基線游離,其如第三圖所示,包含一基線游離補償電路30、一類比數位轉換器32、一前饋濾波器34、加法器35與37、一切劃器36以及一回授濾波器38。此種方式也許可提供減少基線游離的一個較佳方案,然而其在估計與消除基線游離之間的封閉迴路延遲太久,以至於無法輕易保持迴路的穩定性。此外,此種方式會增加硬體,例如必須一數位類比轉換器與一低通濾波器,以在類比域消除基線游離。The above techniques can be classified into three groups, the first group being the above [1], as shown in the second figure, which is an analog domain estimation and compensation baseline free, which includes a baseline free compensation circuit 30, an analogy A digital converter 32, a feedforward filter (FFF) 34, an adder 35, a slicer 36, and a feedback filter (FBF) 38. This way of eliminating baseline detachment in the analog domain, while relaxing the design requirements of the analog-to-digital converter 32, is comparable to the above-described method of digital domain compensation [3]-[6]. The consumption is high, and the circuit occupies a large area of the chip. In order to improve the first mode, CLLing and GCChou proposed another compensation method in [2] above, which is to estimate the baseline free in the digital domain and eliminate the baseline free in the analog domain, which includes a baseline as shown in the third figure. The free compensation circuit 30, an analog-to-digital converter 32, a feedforward filter 34, adders 35 and 37, a wiper 36, and a feedback filter 38. This approach may provide a preferred solution to reduce baseline detachment, however, the closed loop delay between estimating and eliminating baseline detachment is too long to easily maintain loop stability. In addition, this approach adds hardware, such as a digital analog converter and a low pass filter to eliminate baseline detach in the analog domain.

第三個群組方式是在數位域估計與消除基線游離,例如上述[3],其基線游離補償電路如第四圖所示,包含有一基線游離補償電路30、一類比數位轉換器32、一前饋濾波器34、一加法器35、一切劃器36以及一回授濾波器38。基線游離比較器30包括有一延遲單元301與一加法器303。如第四圖所示,基線游離補償電路30包括有一簡易預先判斷電路,其將所接收的取樣與前一次的取樣相減,而產生修正資料。此預先判斷電路補償基線游離之方式,其硬體電路簡單且減少前饋濾波器34與基線游離補償電路30的相互間影響。然而,因為只有使用當前的符號與前一個符號而估計基線游離,如此當傳輸進來的符號具有微小的直流成分時,即可能會在消除直流偏移時發生錯誤。所以,運用此種方式會發生使用錯誤估計對訊號進行修正,如此將會發生不佳的影響。The third group mode is to estimate and eliminate the baseline free in the digital domain, such as the above [3], and the baseline free compensation circuit, as shown in the fourth figure, includes a baseline free compensation circuit 30, an analog-to-digital converter 32, and a A feedforward filter 34, an adder 35, a wiper 36, and a feedback filter 38. The baseline free comparator 30 includes a delay unit 301 and an adder 303. As shown in the fourth figure, the baseline free compensation circuit 30 includes a simple pre-determination circuit that subtracts the received samples from the previous samples to produce correction data. This pre-judgment circuit compensates for the way the baseline is free, its hardware circuit is simple and reduces the mutual influence of the feedforward filter 34 and the baseline free compensation circuit 30. However, since the baseline is freed only by using the current symbol and the previous symbol, when the transmitted symbol has a small DC component, an error may occur in eliminating the DC offset. Therefore, using this method will cause the use of error estimates to correct the signal, which will have a bad impact.

承接上述,其他現今在數位域估計與消除基線游離之方法,即為上述[4]-[6]。其簡易方塊圖如第五圖所示,包含有一基線游離補償電路30、一類比數位轉換器32、一前饋濾波器34、加法器35與37、一切劃器36、一回授濾波器38以及一基線游離估測電路39。此種補償方式是以誤差訊號作為估計直流的偏移值,誤差訊號為判斷裝置(切劃器36)與前饋濾波器34之輸入(虛線)或輸出(實線)之間的差異,並且在前饋濾波器34之輸入端前(虛線)或輸出端後補償基線游離。上述提及之數位補償電路可有效實施於現今的數位電路技術中。In the above, other methods for estimating and eliminating baseline liberation in the digital domain are described above [4]-[6]. The simple block diagram includes a baseline free compensation circuit 30, an analog-to-digital converter 32, a feedforward filter 34, adders 35 and 37, a wiper 36, and a feedback filter 38, as shown in FIG. And a baseline free estimation circuit 39. The compensation method uses the error signal as the offset value of the estimated DC, and the error signal is the difference between the input device (dotted line) or the output (solid line) of the judging device (the cropper 36) and the feedforward filter 34, and The baseline is freed before the front end of the feedforward filter 34 (dashed line) or after the output. The digital compensation circuit mentioned above can be effectively implemented in today's digital circuit technology.

本發明之目的,在於提供一種基線游離之補償裝置及方法,以提升網路傳輸系統之效能。It is an object of the present invention to provide a baseline free compensation apparatus and method for improving the performance of a network transmission system.

本發明之一實施例揭露一種基線游離補償裝置與方法,其運用於發送器具有湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器THP之通訊系統。本發明更適用於10G乙太網路傳輸應用。本發明包括有一外加判斷裝置(切劃器)與一外加運算單元,外加判斷裝置用於產生直流偏移資訊(誤差訊號),而外加運算單元設於基線游離補償電路之後,以回復經補償後的符號為16位準脈波振幅調變訊號。此外,本發明是依據基線游離補償電路之輸入與判斷裝置之輸出間的差異產生複數誤差訊號,而不同於習用技術[4]-[6]。該些誤差訊號可更進一步經過加權處理,以降低經基線游離補償電路處理後所產生的不正確直流資訊的影響。如此,即可取得一個適當且精確的直流偏移資訊,以可改善現今估計不正確基線游離的情形。One embodiment of the present invention discloses a baseline free compensation apparatus and method for use in a transmitter having a communication system of a Tomlinson-Holoshma precoder THP. The invention is more suitable for 10G Ethernet transmission applications. The invention comprises an external judging device (scratch) and an additional arithmetic unit, and the additional judging device is configured to generate DC offset information (error signal), and the additional arithmetic unit is arranged after the baseline free compensation circuit to recover the compensated The symbol is a 16-bit quasi-pulse amplitude modulation signal. In addition, the present invention generates a complex error signal based on the difference between the input of the baseline free compensation circuit and the output of the judging device, which is different from the conventional techniques [4]-[6]. The error signals can be further weighted to reduce the effects of incorrect DC information generated by the baseline free compensation circuit. In this way, an appropriate and accurate DC offset information can be obtained to improve the current estimate of incorrect baseline detachment.

茲為使 貴審查委員對本發明之結構特徵及所達成之功效有更進一步之瞭解與認識,謹佐以較佳之實施例及配合詳細之說明,說明如後:前述的習用技術皆無法適用於發送器具有一湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器(Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder,THP)的通訊系統。湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器THP包含有一加法器、一回授濾波器與一運算單元,以用於預先等化發送端之濾波器至位於相對應接收器的等化器的所有通道響應。為了保持湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器THP輸出的取樣值,以避免取樣值大於後續數位類比轉換器(參閱第一圖)可接受之輸入範圍,運算單元用於摺疊運算湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器THP輸出的取樣值,使得輸出取樣值位於-16與16之間。就因發送器增設有運算單元,所以必須設置相對的運算單元於接收器的等化器(參閱第一圖)之後,以回復接收器所接收的符號至原先的16位準脈波振幅調變符號。就因如此,若運用先前述及的數位基線游離補償方法於具有湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器THP的通訊系統時,則會發生補償錯誤。In order to provide a better understanding and understanding of the structural features and the achievable effects of the present invention, the preferred embodiments and detailed descriptions are as follows: the above-mentioned conventional techniques are not applicable to the transmission. The device has a communication system of Tomlinson-Harashima Precoder (THP). The Tomlinson-Holoshma precoder THP includes an adder, a feedback filter and an arithmetic unit for pre-equalizing the filter of the transmitting end to all channel responses of the equalizer located at the corresponding receiver. . In order to maintain the sampled value of the Thomsonson-Holoshma precoder THP output, to avoid the sample value being greater than the acceptable input range of the subsequent digital analog converter (see the first figure), the arithmetic unit is used for the folding operation of Tomlinson-He Luoxu The sample value output by the digital precoder THP is such that the output sample value is between -16 and 16. Since the arithmetic unit is added to the transmitter, it is necessary to set the relative arithmetic unit to the equalizer of the receiver (refer to the first figure) to restore the symbol received by the receiver to the original 16-bit quasi-pulse amplitude modulation. symbol. For this reason, if the above-mentioned digital baseline free compensation method is used in the communication system with the Thomson-Holozma precoder THP, a compensation error will occur.

以下係針對上述問題舉例說明,以下假定沒有任何其他雜訊輸入於接收器。若接收器所接收的符號沒有基線游離現象,接收器的運算單元則可以正確無誤的回復所接收的符號至初始預先定義值。然而,若等化後的符號具有基線游離,且其原先的值約為15或-15時,該具有基線游離的等化後的符號被運算單元轉換後的值,將大約為-15或15而相反於初始值。此錯誤的值將被後續的切劃器處理,而得到最後的判斷值,且回授一誤差訊號至前述的數位基線游離估測電路,所以此誤差訊號將提供完全相反的直流偏差資訊,因此將使得習用的基線游離補償更為惡化,其包括位元錯誤。為了解決此問題,本發明提出一種新穎的基線游離補償電路,用於消除基線游離現象,特別適用於具有湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器THP的基頻收發系統。The following is an example of the above problem, and it is assumed below that no other noise is input to the receiver. If the symbol received by the receiver does not have a baseline free phenomenon, the receiver's arithmetic unit can correctly reply the received symbol to the initial predefined value. However, if the symbol after equalization has a baseline free and its original value is about 15 or -15, the value of the symbol with the baseline free equalization converted by the arithmetic unit will be approximately -15 or 15 Instead, it is the initial value. The value of this error will be processed by the subsequent marker, and the final judgment value is obtained, and an error signal is fed back to the aforementioned digital baseline estimation circuit, so the error signal will provide completely opposite DC deviation information, so It will make the conventional baseline free compensation worse, including bit errors. In order to solve this problem, the present invention proposes a novel baseline free compensation circuit for eliminating the baseline free phenomenon, and is particularly suitable for a baseband transceiver system having a Thomson-Holozma precoder THP.

請參閱第六圖,其為本發明基線游離補償之一較佳實施例的方塊圖,此實施例是運用於10G乙太網路接收系統。如圖所示,其包含有串聯耦接的一防止失真類比濾波器40、一可程式化增益放大器(PGA)42、一類比數位轉換器44(ADC)、一等化器46、一第一運算單元48、一基線游離補償電路50與一判斷單元60,判斷單元60之一實施例為切劃器。本發明之基線游離補償電路50包含有一第一切劃器52、一加法器53、一基線游離估測電路54、一基線游離補償器56與一第二運算單元59,以用於補償基線游離。為了清楚說明本發明的基線游離補償,第六圖並未繪示其他習用必要功能方塊,例如回應消除器(echo canceller)、串音消除器(cross-talk canceller)、增益控制單元、時序還原單元以及適配單元(adaptation unit)等。Please refer to the sixth figure, which is a block diagram of a preferred embodiment of the baseline free compensation of the present invention, which is applied to a 10G Ethernet receiving system. As shown, it includes a distortion-proof analog filter 40 coupled in series, a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) 42, an analog-to-digital converter 44 (ADC), an equalizer 46, and a first The arithmetic unit 48, a baseline free compensation circuit 50 and a determination unit 60, and an embodiment of the determination unit 60 is a scriber. The baseline free compensation circuit 50 of the present invention includes a first scriber 52, an adder 53, a baseline estimator circuit 54, a baseline free compensator 56 and a second arithmetic unit 59 for compensating for baseline detachment. . In order to clearly illustrate the baseline free compensation of the present invention, the sixth figure does not show other conventionally necessary functional blocks, such as an echo canceller, a cross-talk canceller, a gain control unit, and a timing reduction unit. And an adaptation unit, etc.

首先,類比濾波器40抑制所接收的一接收訊號的高頻訊號成分,以防止後續類比數位轉換器44所取樣的取樣資料發生失真情形。另外,可程式化增益放大器42調整經過濾之類比訊號的輸入振幅,以產生具有適當電壓振幅的類比訊號,像是符合後續類比數位轉換器44可接受的動態範圍。類比數位轉換器44依據可程式化增益放大器42所輸出的類比訊號產生數位訊號,在類比數位轉換器42取樣與量化類比訊號的符號後,該些取樣後產生的數位訊號將傳送至等化器46,以補償經過不完美通道而衰減的訊號。First, the analog filter 40 suppresses the received high frequency signal component of a received signal to prevent distortion of the sampled data sampled by the subsequent analog digital converter 44. In addition, the programmable gain amplifier 42 adjusts the input amplitude of the filtered analog signal to produce an analog signal having an appropriate voltage amplitude, such as to conform to the dynamic range acceptable to the subsequent analog digital converter 44. The analog-to-digital converter 44 generates a digital signal according to the analog signal outputted by the programmable gain amplifier 42. After the analog digital converter 42 samples and quantizes the sign of the analog signal, the digital signal generated after the sampling is transmitted to the equalizer. 46, to compensate for the signal attenuated by the imperfect channel.

由於傳輸系統之發送端具有運算單元,所以接收端亦必須相對設有運算單元48,其耦接於等化器46後,以摺疊運算等化訊號中展開的等化取樣符號,而位於16與-16之間,驅使位於16與-16之間是起因於運用在10G乙太網路系統的16位準脈波振幅調變。最後,如一般接收端般,藉由切劃器60回復該些符號至原先之16位準脈波振幅調變符號,其為16個不連接的值且皆位於15與-15之間的範圍。然而,若基線游離現象影響等化後的符號,該些偏移的符號將導致後續運算單元48運算後產生不正確的結果。Since the transmitting end of the transmission system has an arithmetic unit, the receiving end must also be provided with an arithmetic unit 48, which is coupled to the equalizer 46, and then equalizes the extracted sampling symbols in the folding operation equalization signal, and is located at 16 and Between -16, driving between 16 and -16 is due to the 16-bit quasi-pulse amplitude modulation applied to the 10G Ethernet system. Finally, as in the case of the general receiving end, the symbols are restored by the tracer 60 to the original 16-bit quasi-pulse amplitude modulation symbol, which is a 16 unconnected value and is located between 15 and -15. . However, if the baseline free phenomenon affects the equalized symbols, the offset symbols will cause subsequent arithmetic unit 48 operations to produce incorrect results.

以下係針對上述情形舉例說明,假設發送端原本傳送的符號值為15且由於受基線游離影響而具有一直流偏移,設基線游離為1.2,所以此符號值為16.2。之後,經過運算單元運算後,此受影響的符號值將被轉換為-15.8,此錯誤結果將導致後續切劃器60於判斷符號時產生錯誤判斷,且判斷直流偏移為-0.8,而相反於正確的直流偏移1.2,此錯誤的直流偏移將接著回授至基線游離補償電路而進行補償,如此將使得系統效能更差。The following is an example for the above scenario. It is assumed that the symbol value originally transmitted by the transmitting end is 15 and has a DC offset due to the influence of the baseline free, and the baseline free is 1.2, so the symbol value is 16.2. After that, after the operation unit is operated, the affected symbol value will be converted to -15.8. This error result will cause the subsequent clipper 60 to generate an error judgment when judging the symbol, and determine that the DC offset is -0.8, and vice versa. At the correct DC offset of 1.2, this erroneous DC offset will be compensated back to the baseline free compensation circuit, which will make the system less efficient.

本發明為了提高現有基線游離補償電路運用於10G乙太網路應用的效能,而提出一種新架構的基線游離補償電路,以補償發送端具有湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器THP的基頻通訊系統的基線游離現象。本發明之基線游離補償電路50包含有基線游離器56、基線游離估測電路54、外加之第一切劃器52、加法器53以及外加之第二運算單元59,本發明之基線游離補償電路50經由下述的處理即可確實消除基線游離。第一運算單元48處理後而輸出的輸入訊號中的符號具有基線游離現象,本發明首先藉由基線游離補償器56補償輸入訊號中具有基線游離現象的符號,基線游離補償器56接收輸入訊號,並依據基線游離估測電路54所產生的一補償訊號產生輸出訊號。基線游離補償器56之一實施例為一加法器,其依據補償訊號而將具有基線游離的符號減去估測的基線游離。之後,另外增加的第一切劃器52依據基線游離補償器56產生的輸出訊號產生第一切劃訊號,第一切劃器56藉由映射輸出訊號中經補償的符號為16位準脈波振幅調變預先定義之值,而預先決定經補償的符號可能的脈波振幅調變值。In order to improve the performance of the existing baseline free compensation circuit applied to 10G Ethernet applications, the present invention proposes a new architecture baseline free compensation circuit to compensate the baseband communication with the Thomson-Holozma precoder THP at the transmitting end. The baseline free phenomenon of the system. The baseline free compensation circuit 50 of the present invention includes a baseline freezer 56, a baseline free estimation circuit 54, an additional first scriber 52, an adder 53 and an additional second arithmetic unit 59, the baseline free compensation circuit of the present invention. 50 can be surely eliminated from baseline by the following treatment. The symbol in the input signal processed by the first operation unit 48 has a baseline free phenomenon. The present invention first compensates the symbol having the baseline free phenomenon in the input signal by the baseline free compensator 56, and the baseline free compensator 56 receives the input signal. And generating an output signal according to a compensation signal generated by the baseline free estimation circuit 54. One embodiment of the baseline free compensator 56 is an adder that subtracts the estimated baseline free from the baseline free symbol based on the compensation signal. Thereafter, the additional first scriber 52 generates a first slash signal according to the output signal generated by the baseline free compensator 56, and the first scriber 56 maps the compensated symbol in the output signal to a 16-bit quasi-pulse wave. The amplitude is modulated by a predefined value, and the possible pulse amplitude modulation value of the compensated symbol is predetermined.

加法器53耦接於基線游離補償器56與第一切劃器52之間,而用於產生一誤差訊號err,以估測基線游離,加法器53將基線游離補償器56之輸入訊號的輸入符號減去第一切劃訊號之符號的預先決定16位準脈波振幅調變值,而產生誤差訊號err。基線游離估測電路54耦接於加法器53與基線游離補償器56之間,而利用誤差訊號err估測基線的偏移位準,並且產生補償訊號以提供基線游離補償器56估測值,進而用於消除下一個符號的基線游離。最後,若基線游離補償器56確實消除所接收的符號中的基線游離,第二運算單元59耦接於基線游離補償器56的一輸出端並依據輸訊號產生調整訊號,第二運算單元59轉換輸出訊號中經補償的符號為適當訊號位準,例如補償後的符號位於16與-16間的範圍外時,則必須進行摺疊運算而讓符號位於範圍內,以避免後續的第二切劃器60發生錯誤判斷的情形。第二切劃器60依據調整訊號產生第二切劃訊號。The adder 53 is coupled between the baseline free compensator 56 and the first scriber 52 for generating an error signal err to estimate the baseline detachment, and the adder 53 inputs the input signal of the baseline free compensator 56. The symbol is subtracted from the pre-determined 16-bit quasi-pulse amplitude modulation value of the symbol of the first sliced signal to generate an error signal err. The baseline estimator circuit 54 is coupled between the adder 53 and the baseline free compensator 56, and uses the error signal err to estimate the offset level of the baseline, and generates a compensation signal to provide a baseline free compensator 56 estimate. It is then used to eliminate the baseline detachment of the next symbol. Finally, if the baseline free compensator 56 does eliminate the baseline freeness in the received symbol, the second computing unit 59 is coupled to an output of the baseline free compensator 56 and generates an adjustment signal according to the signal number, and the second operation unit 59 converts The compensated symbol in the output signal is the appropriate signal level. For example, if the compensated symbol is outside the range between 16 and -16, the folding operation must be performed to make the symbol within the range to avoid the subsequent second cropper. 60 The situation of misjudgment. The second scriber 60 generates a second slashing signal according to the adjustment signal.

請參閱第七圖,其為本發明之基線游離估測電路54之一較佳實施例的方塊圖。如圖所示,基線游離估測電路54包括一加權單元57、具有一過濾器582與一除法電路584的一過濾電路58以及一延遲單元59。過濾器582包括有複數延遲單元5822與複數加法單元5824。加權單元57耦接於基線游離補償器56與加法器53(參閱第六圖),以依據輸入訊號與誤差訊號err產生一加權訊號。過濾電路58利用過濾器582累積產生於不同時間的該些加權訊號並且輸出一過濾訊號,以產生該補償訊號。上述之該些誤差訊號err傳送至加權單元57,加權單元57依據以下規則而產生一加權結果:若輸入訊號中的未補償符號的絕對值大於一門檻值,則將誤差訊號err與一加權因子c相乘而為輸出,加權因子c之值介於0~1之間,;若輸入訊號中的未補償符號的絕對值等於或小於該門檻值,則直接輸出誤差訊號err為輸出;其中,上述之輸出為加權訊號,且門檻值的一較佳實施為15。Please refer to the seventh figure, which is a block diagram of a preferred embodiment of the baseline free estimation circuit 54 of the present invention. As shown, the baseline free estimation circuit 54 includes a weighting unit 57, a filtering circuit 58 having a filter 582 and a dividing circuit 584, and a delay unit 59. The filter 582 includes a complex delay unit 5822 and a complex addition unit 5824. The weighting unit 57 is coupled to the baseline free compensator 56 and the adder 53 (see the sixth figure) to generate a weighted signal according to the input signal and the error signal err. The filter circuit 58 accumulates the weighted signals generated at different times by the filter 582 and outputs a filtered signal to generate the compensation signal. The error signals err are transmitted to the weighting unit 57. The weighting unit 57 generates a weighting result according to the following rule: if the absolute value of the uncompensated symbol in the input signal is greater than a threshold, the error signal err and a weighting factor are used. c is multiplied to output, and the value of the weighting factor c is between 0 and 1. If the absolute value of the uncompensated symbol in the input signal is equal to or less than the threshold, the error signal err is directly output as an output; The above output is a weighted signal, and a preferred implementation of the threshold is 15.

上述規則,主要是獲得輸入訊號與門檻值之間的一比較關係,若該比較關表示一第一情形時,即輸入訊號的值大於門檻值,則依據加權因子c與誤差訊號err產生加權訊號;若該比較關表示一第二情形時,即輸入訊號的值等或小於門檻值,則輸出誤差訊號err為加權訊號。上述加權因子c用於緩和可能為不正確的誤差訊號err對於補償訊號的影響,此不正確的誤差訊號err源自於第一運算單元48運算受到基線游離影響而其振幅大約在16或-16左右的過度偏移符號。若未使用加權因子c,此不正確的誤差訊號err通常所提供的直流偏移植是會相反於正確的直流偏移值,如此將導致符號產生更嚴重的基線游離現象,故會嚴重降低系統的效能。The above rule mainly obtains a comparison relationship between the input signal and the threshold. If the comparison indicates a first situation, that is, the value of the input signal is greater than the threshold, the weighting signal is generated according to the weighting factor c and the error signal err. If the comparison indicates a second situation, that is, the value of the input signal is equal to or less than the threshold value, the output error signal err is a weighted signal. The weighting factor c is used to mitigate the influence of the error signal err, which may be incorrect, on the compensation signal. The incorrect error signal err is derived from the operation of the first operation unit 48 being affected by the baseline free and having an amplitude of about 16 or -16. Excessive offset symbols on the left and right. If the weighting factor c is not used, the incorrect error signal err usually provides a DC offset migration that is opposite to the correct DC offset value, which will result in a more severe baseline detachment of the symbol, which will seriously reduce the system's efficacy.

加權單元57之輸出接續會傳輸至移位式平均過濾器582,其包含有N-1個延遲單元5822與N個加法單元5824,以用於估測偏移的基線。該些延遲單元5822相串接一起,以用於在不同時間輸出加權訊號;該些加法單元5824亦相串接一起,以用於相加產生於不同時間之該加權訊號而運算總和,並輸出為一過濾訊號。該些錯誤訊號err經過低通過濾的移位式平均過濾器582處理後,將僅有低頻訊號成分所包含的顯著直流被保留。上述該過濾訊號將傳輸至除法電路584,除法電路584將過濾訊號除以N,以產生補償訊號並經由延遲單元59傳輸至基線游離估測電路54,延續單元59將延遲一個時脈周期,如此基線游離補償器56即會將輸入訊號中的符號減去經過延遲單元59延遲一個時脈周期的基線游離估測值,以消除基線游離而重建不具基線游離的符號。The output of the weighting unit 57 is transmitted to the shift averaging filter 582, which includes N-1 delay units 5822 and N summing units 5824 for estimating the baseline of the offset. The delay units 5822 are connected in series for outputting the weighting signals at different times; the adding units 5824 are also connected in series for adding the weighted signals generated at different times to calculate the sum and output For a filter signal. After the error signals err are processed by the low pass filtered shift average filter 582, only the significant DCs contained in the low frequency signal components are retained. The filtering signal is transmitted to the dividing circuit 584. The dividing circuit 584 divides the filtering signal by N to generate a compensation signal and transmits it to the baseline free estimation circuit 54 via the delay unit 59. The continuation unit 59 will delay one clock cycle. The baseline free compensator 56 subtracts the sign in the input signal from the baseline free estimate of a clock cycle delayed by delay unit 59 to eliminate baseline detachment and reconstruct a symbol that does not have baseline detachment.

為確認本發明之基線游離補償方式確實可有效消除基線游離,本發明以運用於10G乙太網路應用為例進行模擬(請參閱IEEE P802.3an Draft 3.0),以下將以模擬結果進行說明。上述模擬是以保護類型6之傳輸線,其傳輸長度約為100公尺,上述模擬的傳輸功率為5dBm且加入的雜訊為加法性白色高斯雜訊(additive white Gaussian noise,AWGN)並超出頻寬800MHz,此外等化器之數目為128,而湯林森-何洛緒瑪預編碼器THP的數目亦為128。In order to confirm that the baseline free compensation method of the present invention can effectively eliminate the baseline detachment, the present invention is simulated by using the 10G Ethernet application as an example (see IEEE P802.3an Draft 3.0), and the simulation results will be described below. The above simulation is to protect the type 6 transmission line, the transmission length is about 100 meters, the above-mentioned analog transmission power is 5dBm and the added noise is additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and exceeds the bandwidth. 800MHz, in addition to the number of equalizers is 128, and the number of Thomson-Holozma precoder THP is also 128.

請參閱第八圖,其顯示模擬第一運算單元48(參閱第七圖)之輸出的模擬結果,由圖示可得知,沒有經過基線游離補償之訊號,其經過等化器46等化後的符號隨著時間而向上或向下偏移,且在切劃器輸出所得到的訊號雜訊比(signal-to-noise ratio,SNR)僅為23.6dB。接續,請參閱第九圖,其顯示模擬經過本發明之補償方式補償之輸出的模擬結果,由圖示可明顯看出基線游離現象已消除,且計算所得到的訊號雜訊比SNR可達到33.8dB,所以有效大幅減少位元錯誤率。從以上模擬結果可知,本發明之補償方式可增加訊號雜訊比SNR超過10dB,且可減少不正確補償結果的影響,此不正確補償結果所提供的直流偏移資訊相反於正確的直流偏移。此外,由於本發明之補償方式是在數位域進行補償,所以可節省功率消耗並可減少佔用晶片的面積,而有效運用晶片面積,且回授迴路延遲小,因此可輕易系統的穩定性。Please refer to the eighth figure, which shows the simulation result of simulating the output of the first arithmetic unit 48 (refer to the seventh figure). It can be seen from the figure that the signal without the baseline free compensation is equalized by the equalizer 46. The sign is shifted up or down over time, and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) obtained at the output of the wiper is only 23.6 dB. For the continuation, please refer to the ninth figure, which shows the simulation results simulating the output compensated by the compensation method of the present invention. It can be clearly seen from the diagram that the baseline free phenomenon has been eliminated, and the calculated signal noise ratio SNR can reach 33.8. dB, so effectively reducing the bit error rate significantly. It can be seen from the above simulation results that the compensation method of the present invention can increase the signal-to-noise ratio SNR by more than 10 dB, and can reduce the influence of the incorrect compensation result. The DC offset information provided by the incorrect compensation result is opposite to the correct DC offset. . In addition, since the compensation method of the present invention compensates in the digital domain, power consumption can be saved and the area occupied by the wafer can be reduced, and the wafer area can be effectively utilized, and the feedback loop delay is small, so that the stability of the system can be easily performed.
